CHAPTER SEVEN

SABINE'S POINT OF VIEW.

The car stopped at the huge building and I looked at Dominic once again to see if i could get through to him

"Please do not do this to me,I should not pay for what my father did to you after all" I said to him but he simply gave me a deadpanned look as though he could not care less what i felt or thought..

"Get out of the car" he said, his tone harsh and unyielding, remdering me completely speechless but against my better judgement and the subtle look the driver directed at me to do as he said, i still pled with him

"Ple-" i started

"Do you want me to show you footage of your father's house from the sniper's phone or will you do as i say?" he said and I shrank back at the realisation that he could do as he wanted to my family

I got out of the car so fast, you would think the seats burned me and stood eside him as he pulled me by the arm softly, suprisingly, into the builldin. The second he stepped in, the air in the room shifted as everyone in the room bowed to him;it felt like i had walked into a movie and he was the king while everyone else was a commoner and beneath him.

He barely acknowleged anyone as he focused on getting me to whereever he was taking me; thw whole time i tried screaming but remembered that he seemed to rule the city so i simply succumbed and let him pull me

We got to a door and as soon as it was opened, i saw two men in the room, one was in an atire that looked like that of a priest and the other was dressed in a suit; i guessed he was a lawyer. Dominic pulled me to them and said

"Hurry up with it" he barked out at them and they scurried to do his bidding like they were mice and not grown men

"Please sign this document first, it is to solidify your union and formerly make you Mrs Dominic Vitiello and Donna of the Cosa Nostra" The man in the suit said

"Sign it" Dominic gritted out as he passed me a pen "You should know, divorce is not an option, it is till death do us part and unless you know something i don't, i am not dying anytime soon and at least not without you by my side" he said leaving me stunned and speechles at the idea that i would be bound to him for life.

Trying to reach him again, i ssid "Please,don't do this. I promise, i will behave. I know i have been very stubborn and wild but i will be more docile if you do not do this to me, you already took everything from me"

"Sign the papers Dolcezza, i will not ask again" he said as though whatever is aid did not matter to him so i simply bent foward and signed the papers. I stared at the dotted line that had a small tear drop stain on it as i signed the papers that sealed my fate to the mafia king.

As soon as i signed it, the paper, the lawyer took, nodded at Domnic, my husband, the name left a bitter sweet taste in my mouth; and the man in the priest attire walked foward and said

"I will be the one to take your vows, Do you Mr Dominic Vitiello take Miss Sabine Matthews-

"Mrs Sabine Vitiello" Dominic interrupted and the look he gave him would send anyone to an earlly grave

The priest bobbed his head fearfully and corrected himself "Mrs Sabine Vitiello to be your lawfully wedded wife in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" he said and the smiek that resukted from Dominic's lips made my heart skip and my belly flutter as i loooked on in a mix of fear and anticipation as he said

"I do" so loudly his voice boomed in the small hall

The priest looked at me with sympathy and repeated the same thing to me; remembering the snoper at my house, i said "I do against my wishes but for some reason, my body liked that i had become his wife, i felt powerful for some reason.

"You may kiss the bride" the priest said and Dominic slammed his lips on mine; his kiss made me breathless and my heart beat faster as his lips moved against mine. I kissed him back with little hesitation; i blamed it on fear and not that for some reason, i wanted to kiss him back even after all he did.

He pulled back when he just when it got too much for me and i could not breathe, He looked at me smirking as he said "Tutto mio (all mine)" in that same language that I did not understand

'I have to earn this language at all cost I said internally

He looked at the two men that conducted our. wedding, if I can call it that and said "Get everything ready before night fall or else" and pulled me out of the hall and the building.

When we were properly inside the car, I turned to him and stared at his form, he looked elated. Perhaps at the fact that I was now his and he got his revenge on my father; he killed both birds with one stone.

"What happens now? is this the time where you take me home to have your way with me? do I even have a say in this sham of. a marriage? " I asked as I fought tears; I felt a surge of determinations in me; he would not see my tears.

"Well, as my wife, let's just say you are all mine now and I can do whatever j please with you so yes, I will be sleeping with you tonight: after all, it's our wedding night" he said and looked me over in that heated way that made my heart beat faster and my belly quiver in anticipation

"you will have to rape me then because I will never sleep with you willingly! " I yelled as anger surged in me at his words and my lies

He was about to respond when the driver stopped the car. I looked out to see that we were home.... it saddened me that I was starting to consider this strange mansion home. I looked at it and behind its Glory, it looked like I was about to step into luxury.

"Sir, we have a situation" the driver said and held out a phone to Dominic, my husband

He listened to whoever was on the other end and took in a deep breath. I looked at his countenance to see that he was livid, his eyes got darker and his lips drew in a harsh line as though he was about to erupt. He hung up the call and said "Go inside, Marianna will get you something to eat so eat and make sure you're ready by the time I come home" he said and like clockwork, the door was opened and I got out of the car.

I watched as my husband drove off into the distance and stared back at the house determine to one day escape the clutches of this mafia don.
